DISPLAY-CABINET FOR PACKETS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 708,057, dated September 2, 1902. Application filed August 12, 1901. Serial No. 71,725. (No modelJ To all whomit .may concern:
Be it known that I, ALEXANDER WALKER MoTIER MARTIN,-'a citizen of the United States, residing at St. Paul, in the county of Ramsey and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Display-Cabinets for Packets, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in display-cabinets for packets, its object being to provide a case in which a quantity of pack ets can be held in selected groups, the packets being at all times exposed to view to indicate their contents and the receptacle for the packets being so constructed and arranged as to allow the packets to be easily removed, while at the same time holding them normally within the case to prevent unauthorized removal.
My invention further consists in the features of construction and combination hereinafter specifically described and claimed.
In the drawings forming part of this specification, Figure 1 is a front elevation of my improved case. Fig. 2 is a section on line a: 00 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a horizontal section of one side of the receptacle-frame, taken on line y y of Fig. 2, showing one of the receptacles turned into open position; and Fig. 4 is an end view of one of the receptacles.
In the drawings, A represents the outer framework of the case, preferably formed of tubing with suitable supporting-feet 2.
B represents the inner frame rotatably supported within the frame A by means of the upper and lower pivotal connections 3 and 4.
Within the frame B are pivotally supported the packet-receptacles O. The upright sides of the inner frame B, as shown in Fig. 3, are formed with inwardly-projecting flanges 5 and the central partition 7. The receptacles O extend: across the frame B, as shown in Fig. 1, and have secured upon their ends diagonally-arranged wires 8, provided with outwardly-extending ends 9 and 10. The outwardly-projecting end 10 of each wire extends through an opening 11 in the adjacent flange 5. It will be understood that both vertical rails of the frame B are similarly constructed and the opposite ends of the receptacle 0 provided with similar wires 8. The
upon which the receptacles may be turned;
-When turned outward, the upper ends 9 of the wires 8 will abut against the flanges 5, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, limitingv the movement of the receptacles. The front wall 12 of each receptacle is considerably lower than the back walls, and connected therewith is a series of upwardly-projecting strips 13, connected at their upper ends with a horizontal strip 14, said strip 14: having an inward and downward extending lip 15, under which the front packets 16 are adapted to be inserted. In line with the strips 13 are arranged a series of partition-walls 17. The packets in use are placed between the partition-walls, the front packets being inserted under the lip 16. The face of each front packet will then be visible through the opening formed by the strips 13, thus indicating the contents of the packets. Ordinarily the receptacles standin closed position, as illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2. When it is desired to remove any of the packets, the receptacle holding the same is turned to open position, as shown in Fig. 2, and the packet can be removed. The pivotal support for each receptacle being forward of the center of gravity, the'receptacle will return to closed position as soon as released.
I claim 1. In a display-case of the class described, the combination with an outer frame, of a frame rotatably supported therein, a series of horizontal receptacles pivotallysupported in said inner frame, vertical strips arranged at the forward sides of said receptacles constituting intermediate openings, a strip secured to the upper ends of said vertical strips and formed with an inwardlyand downwardly projecting lip, and partition-walls arranged transversely of said receptacles adjacent to said vertical strips.
2. In a case of the class described, the combination of a frame, a series of receptacles arranged transversely thereof, inwardlyprojecting flanges carried by the side walls of said frame, outwardly-projecting pivots carried by the ends of said receptacles and projecting through said flanges, and means carried by said receptacles for abutting against said flanges to limit the movement of said receptacles.
3. In a display-case of the class described, the combination with a frame, of a series of receptacles transversely arranged therein, inwardly-projecting flanges carried by the side Walls of said frame, a pivotal connection between the lower ends of said receptacles and said flanges, and means carried by said receptacles for abutting against the-flanges to limit the movement of said receptacles.
4:. In a display-case of the class described, the combination with a frame, of a series of receptacles transversely arranged therein, inwardly-projecting flanges carried by the side walls of said frame, wires diagonally secured to the ends of said receptacles, the lower ends of said wires being bent outwardly and projecting through the adjacent flanges upon the side walls of the frame, and the upper ends of said wires being outwardly bent to abut against said flanges and limit the movement of said receptacles.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
ALEXANDER WALKER MC'JIER MARTIN.
